Palisades Junior High- NOVEMBER: the Word is GOOOOD!

Hey Junior Highers!
You are all high flyers!
Here's the Bible reading for November!
This is the Word, God wants you to remember!
Have a great week and see you soon!

In all seriousness, please check out November's Bible reading!

And also come out next Friday, November 5th, with some goodies, toys, pencils, pens as we make OPERATION Christmas Child boxes for the children around the world!


November 2010 Bible Reading Schedule


For this month please follow the reading schedule. You can follow the following format.


On Your Own

-Pray. Take this time to pray for this time of hearing God speak through the living Word of God.

-Read. Underline, highlight or take note of any words, phrases, verses that stand out or confuse you. You will eventually develop your own way.

-Ask yourself these three questions as you read through the text. You may have to read the text a few times.

o What does the passage say? Read it at least once and, if necessary, compare different translations.[1]

o What does it mean? What did it mean to the person who first wrote it and those who first read [and heard] it? Extra reading (like commentaries or articles on this text) may help here. Write down questions, items to note, etc.

o How does it apply to me, my family, my [school] or work, my neighbors, the society around me? …It is when we see the relevance to our own lives that Bible reading becomes so exciting and we become conscious that we are hearing God’s voice? Think also about the words, phrases that really stood out to you. Why do you think they stood out? Is God saying something to you?

Sundays will be a day of rest as you hear the Word of God by Pastor Rana or Pastor Paul. However, please think about the Word that day as you worship Him!

  1. My mom asked this question: If Sarai is 75 years old, how is she beautiful?
    My theory: If Abraham lived to be about 200 years old, then he had to have aged slower. In other words, if you aged the same way you do today, your bones and muscles would be so worn out you could not move at 200 years. So, if Abraham was 75, he must have had the body of a 35 year old. Same goes with his wife.

    Or, God just gave him awesomeness.
